@E9ine_AC This is great news! Does anyone know if this is only for pc or does it also affect console? Also, will this block the use of cheat boxes like chronus zen, strikepack, and Xim? I sure hope so. Anyway, whatever gets blocked by this I'm sure it will be an improvement, and probably means more updates to the anti cheat are on the way.
This, along with some of the changes already done and the surveys they sent out shows they are definitely listening and are aware of the issues. I hope this is just the start of more good things to come!

@AymCTL What it can detect will be unknown to the players. This is to keep things as secret as possible to ensure no work around can be made. Only way we will know what exactly it is finding is by players openly stating what they were using when it denied them access.
So far I've seen DS4, DS5 being seen in those detections. We will have to wait for people who use those devices to just openly say hey I was using this and its detected now. lol

@E9ine_AC i wonder if a ban of sorts will go along with the block and/or if 1 chance will be given? 😃
- @OldTreeCreeper Appears its being ran the same as other games using EAC. It disconnects you from the game until you unplug or unload said devices/programs.
Can add CrosshairX with Ds4 and 5 now.I think this was only for the pc version. I just tried a gun run on switch and the cheating was just as bad as it usually is. One person used autokill (one melee punch takes all health and shields) and another player had rapid fire/zero recoil, killing people all over the place in just "one hit". Could be because it's rooted in one of those boxes and not the software. I'm hoping the days of people cheating in mixtape on console are numbered though. I'm sure this current update is just the beginning.
